Itzu Sport Fishing & Tours

Itzu Sport Fishing & Tours offer some of the best fishing and leisure charters running out of Puerto Vallarta. From a sunny day cruising around some beautiful beaches for a bit of fishing and snorkelling, to a 12-hour marathon heading 50 miles out to El Banco - one of the best big game spots in the whole of western Mexico - to do battle with giant pelagics and monster Tuna, Itzu are the guys to go with.

Their 28 ft Mazaltán center console was fresh out of the box in 2015, and comes fully rigged for an amazing fishing experience with GPS, fishfinder, outriggers, fighting chair, Tuna tubes, live bait tank, and the latest in high quality Shimano rods and reels, tournament grade lures and custom built spreader bars. These guys pull out all the stops to help you land the monsters of your dreams.

Captain Jordan Brakefield is a professional and hard-working captain with a wealth of experience and local knowledge at his command. He and his highly-skilled first mate will work tirelessly and happily to make your trip as good as it possibly can be, no matter what you want from it.

All Itzu trips come with fishing licences for all on board and a complimentary filleting and bagging service for anything you want to take away with you.
